章 16: Chapter 16: My House is Pretty Big
Confusing as it may be, bear with it, it will all make sense soon. The OG author likes to be vague with certain things.

Xue Jing arrived at school at 1:30 in the afternoon.
Just like in the morning, he did not go directly to class but stepped into the Qingda University campus again and went to the Qingda Library.
Compared with the sparsely populated morning, the library was quite crowded at this time, but everyone was very quiet, and only the sound of pages turning could be heard.
Xue Jing's arrival attracted the attention of many students. A short-haired girl sitting on a chair in the lounge area, holding an extracurricular reading book, looked at Xue Jing, who was wearing the school uniform of the Affiliated High School, with sparkling eyes and whispered excitedly to her best friend beside her:
"Look, look, that little brother is so handsome!"
"Let's go ask him for his WeChat?"
Her best friend stared at Xue Jing and complained, "Don't you like older guys? Why are you eyeing the little milk dog in the Affiliated High School?"
"Even if you don't like sweets, you will still drool when you see this kind of top-notch dessert!" The short-haired girl's eyes lit up.
"Come on, I'll go ask him for his WeChat ID. You stay by my side to give me courage..."
As she said that, she stood up from the chair.
The chair was pushed away, rubbing against the floor, making a slightly sharp sound.
As if hearing the movement here, Xue Jing turned his head and looked at the short-haired girl.
"..."
The latter was glanced at by those cold eyes, and her entire body seemed to be poured with a basin of cold water, from the scalp to the heels, and her inner desire dissipated in an instant. It was not until Xue Jing walked up the stairs and left her sight that the short-haired girl suddenly covered her chest and gasped for breath, like a drowning person who had just been rescued ashore.
Her best friend was stunned for a moment, then immediately patted her back to help her calm down, asking with concern, "What's wrong, Xiaolin, are you okay?"
The girl with a ponytail named Xiaolin said with lingering fear, "I don't know why, that brother... seems very dangerous. I'd better not ask for his WeChat."
...
Xue Jing, who didn't know how much psychological damage his casual glance had caused to others, went straight up to the seventh floor. The seventh floor was as deserted as ever, in sharp contrast to the popular first six floors. There was only one girl, sitting upright on an old chair, holding a book, still sitting so straight that nothing could be found wrong with her posture, and her light blue tight jeans were stretched tight, like a ripe peach.
It was the girl Xue Jing met at the same place in the morning.
Unlike in the morning, when the girl saw Xue Jing, she nodded at him, her waist-high ponytail swaying gently, and a smile appeared on her clean and beautiful face.
Xue Jing smiled, said nothing, and nodded to her.
He thought this kind of silent acquaintance was quite interesting.
Walking into the bookshelf area, Xue Jing began to look for clues that might be related to the "divine substance".
Under the dim light, Xue Jing and the girl were busy with their own things, clearly separated. They seemed like two unrelated passers-by, but they also had an inexplicable sense of harmony.
An hour later, Xue Jing learned a lot of things that ordinary people didn't know, but he still didn't know anything about the divine substance.
"Let's go to class first."
Shaking his head, Xue Jing put the book in his hand back on the bookshelf and walked out of the library.
The silent seventh floor left only the girl, like a lonely earthbound spirit imprisoned here. Only the occasional sound of turning pages could prove that she was a real person.
When Xue Jing walked into his class, he found that the desks and chairs that were originally scratched by Pei Youguang had been replaced with a set of intact ones.
"It was that second-year student Pei Youguang who came here and replaced your desk and chair" a classmate who came early explained.
"Is that so?" Xue Jing replied.
He didn't really care, as he could sit on the table and chairs regardless of whether they were stained or not. However, the desk drawer had been stuffed with dirty things after all, so it was good to replace them. 'Pei Youguang is a sensible boy' Xue Jing thought. It was worth his sincere lecture.
The four classes in the afternoon passed quickly. Xue Jing said hello to Li Ge and said that he had something to do, so he left first.
Then he packed up his textbooks, put his schoolbag on one shoulder, and walked out of the third teaching building.
There are three teaching buildings in the affiliated high school, one for each grade, and each grade has twenty classes.
Xue Jing came to the corridor of the second teaching building where the second years studied, leaned on the pillar at the door, took out his mobile phone, and waited while flipping through some explanation videos about martial arts.
He looked quite eye-catching. When the second years who came out of the building saw him, they would more or less keep their eyes on him.
It didn't take long. Soon, a plump young man surrounded by a group of younger brothers, with bandages around his nose and eye, wrapped up like a mummy, came out.
It was Pei Youguang.
The younger brothers next to him also had some injuries, but not as serious as Pei Youguang.
When he saw Xue Jing, Pei Youguang was stunned for a moment, then trotted over and said attentively, "Hey, Brother Jing, are you waiting for me?"
His performance immediately stunned the second-year students around him.
"Is this Pei Youguang?"
"Ah? Is this Pei Youguang? He's tied up like a mummy, so I didn't recognize him."
"Who is that person? Why does Pei Youguang seem to be... dog licking him?"
"It's Xue Jing, who is in the third year! I saw him in the morning. He was called out by Zhou Juncheng at the school gate yesterday. I thought he was going to be beaten by Pei Youguang, but he seems to be okay..."
"Are you stupid? if Pei Youguang state is like this, he must have been beaten instead of the other way around."
"What's going on? Pei Youguang has practiced martial arts, hasn't he? Why was he beaten like this?"
There was a small sound of discussion around, and the students all looked excited.
This school bully is very popular for very obvious reasons, but now it seems that he is at a disadvantage, everyone is very happy.
"It's what he deserves. He bullies people every day, and now he's hit an iron wall!"
"Finally someone can deal with him."
"Pei Youguang and I are in the same class. In the morning, he was still talking about giving Xue Jing a hard time. It was said that it was because Lin Shiyu liked Xue Jing... Look, Lin Shiyu is out."
Lin Shiyu, the girl wearing the school's uniform, with long and straight legs shining in the sunset, walked out of the teaching building and saw Xue Jing. A trace of embarrassment appeared on her pretty face. She had just been rejected in the morning when she confessed her love, and now she met the person involved again. She was immediately embarrassed.
Fortunately, Xue Jing didn't even look at her, as if he didn't notice her at all. Although he looked a little ruthless, which made her very disappointed, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Lin Shiyu hurriedly picked up her schoolbag and trotted away, holding the hand of her best friend beside her.
"Brother Jing, you are here to learn strength from me, right? Let's go to my house. My house is quite big, and I have almost all the equipment for practicing martial arts there..."
Pei Youguang said, using his only remaining right eye to signal the younger brother beside him.
The latter immediately understood and stepped forward, saying attentively, "Brother Jing, let me help you carry your schoolbag."
"Okay, let's go." Xue Jing smiled, handed the schoolbag to the younger brother, and followed Pei Youguang out of the campus.
